55: Chapter 55 Farewell, my girl! I'd even dare to drastically modify the private jet from Beijing on the spot!
The Z-20 landed smoothly.
The cabin door opened, and General Zhang jumped out of the cabin in full military uniform.
Behind him followed two armed guards.
The entire Su Family Village gathered in the distance, craning their necks to watch.
"Che Wazi, let's go!"
General Zhang walked up to Su Che, patted him on the shoulder, and said in a booming voice.
Su Che nodded and turned back to look at Lin Waner, who was standing under the eaves.
The girl was carrying the pink smart anti-theft backpack he had given her on the fifth day of the Lunar New Year, her hands nervously gripping the straps, her eyes red.
"Su Che."
Lin Waner walked forward a few steps, stood in front of him, and looked up.
"I... I will go to the capital to find you in two days."
Su Che was stunned.
"What's wrong?"
"The new teacher only arrived today, and I have to hand over the children's affairs to her."
Lin Waner's voice had a hint of nasal congestion, but she was firm.
"I cannot just leave like this."
Su Che looked at her, seeing the seriousness and the heavy sense of responsibility in her eyes.
He reached out and smoothed the bangs that had been messed up by the wind.
"Okay."
"I will wait for you."
Su Pingan walked out of the house, carrying a cloth bag containing roasted peanuts and some homemade cured meat.
He stuffed the bag into Su Che's arms.
"Take this, eat it on the road."
He didn't say much else, just gave his son a heavy hug.
"When you are out there, don't embarrass your old man."
"I know, Dad."
Village Chief Wang Fugui also gathered around with a group of villagers.
"Che Wazi, come back and visit often!"
"Engineer Su, you are the pride of our entire village!"
"When you get to the capital, give our big leaders our regards!"
Su Che looked at the simple, honest faces, and his heart felt warm.
He said goodbye to the uncles and aunts one by one, and finally, his gaze fell back on Lin Waner.
"I'm leaving."
He turned around and followed General Zhang toward the steel behemoth.
He did not look back again.
He was afraid that if he looked back, he wouldn't be able to bear leaving.
...
At Xuefeng City Zhijiang Airport, the military special plane had already taken off.
The plane cut through the clouds, flying steadily at an altitude of ten thousand meters.
The cabin was very spacious, and apart from Su Che and General Zhang, there were no other passengers.
"Kid, when you get to the capital, don't act like a hedgehog, pricking everyone you see."
General Zhang leaned back in his comfortable seat, imparting his experience.
"Those old guys who do scientific research are national treasures, and their tempers are all stranger than the next; you have to stroke them the right way."
Su Che responded absentmindedly.
Just at this moment.
"Boom—!"
The entire plane shook violently, as if it had been slapped hard by an invisible giant hand!
The warning lights in the cabin lit up instantly, emitting a harsh buzzing sound!
The plane began to vibrate violently and plummet!
"Report, General!"
The pilot's urgent and nervous voice came from the cockpit.
"Encountering strong vertical wind shear! The attitude control system has a serious failure!"
General Zhang's expression changed instantly.
His own death didn't matter, but if something happened to Su Che, he would become a sinner of Dragon Kingdom for all eternity!
General Zhang gripped the armrest tightly and roared into the intercom.
"Can you stabilize it?!"
"We are trying! But... it's difficult! The plane is about to lose control!"
At this moment, when the plane was about to crash and everyone was about to die.
In Su Che's mind, that familiar mechanical voice arrived as promised.
[Ding! Flight danger detected for the host, side quest triggered!]
[Quest Name: The Needle of the Sea at Ten Thousand Meters!]
[Quest Content: The General's face has turned pale! It is time to show your true skills! Please develop an upgraded aircraft stabilizer to solve the problem of flight attitude loss and let the special plane land safely!]
[Quest Reward: 250 Skill Points, unlock [Adaptive Attitude Control Technology] primary exchange authority, requires 120 exchange points.]
[Current accumulated Skill Points of the host: 700 points, do you want to exchange?]
"Exchange!"
Su Che did not hesitate.
[Ding! Consumed 120 Skill Points, [Adaptive Attitude Control Technology] primary exchange authority has been exchanged.]
[System prompt: You can directly exchange for [Aircraft Attitude Sensor Calibration Blueprint], required Skill Points: 30 points.]
"Exchange!"
"Uncle Zhang!"
Su Che turned his head sharply and roared at the pale-faced General Zhang.
"Tell the cockpit to connect the plane's core attitude control data interface to me! Quickly!"
General Zhang was stunned for a moment, but seeing the unquestionable look in Su Che's eyes, he almost subconsciously ordered into the intercom.
"Do as he says! Quickly!"
A crew member braved the violent turbulence, staggered out of the cockpit, and connected a data cable to a spare interface next to Su Che's seat.
Su Che pulled open his military backpack and dumped everything inside onto the floor with a "clatter."
A few chips, a bundle of wires, a portable soldering iron, and a pile of electronic components, including those provided by Jiang Yingxue.
He picked up a palm-sized FPGA chip and started working immediately.
The blue smoke from the soldering iron rose in the turbulent cabin.
General Zhang stared at this kid, dumbfounded.
The plane was about to fall apart, and he, damn it, still had the mood to do electrical work here?
A few minutes later.
A crude black box, glued together with hot melt adhesive and with wires as messy as a bird's nest, appeared in Su Che's hand.
He plugged the black box into the data interface, then took out his mobile phone, connected it, and quickly typed a few lines of code.
"Done."
As soon as he finished speaking, the violent shaking that felt like it would shake people's bones apart stopped abruptly.
The plane instantly stabilized.
It was as stable as if it were parked on the ground.
A few seconds later, the pilot's exclamation, as if he had seen a ghost, came from the cockpit.
"It's... it's stabilized!"
"The attitude system has returned to normal! No... it's even more stable than the factory settings! My God!"
General Zhang looked at Su Che, then at the ugly black box that was still flashing indicator lights, his jaw dropping in shock.
Su Che put away his phone, looking calm and composed.
"A small gadget, not worth mentioning."
...
The plane landed smoothly at the Capital International Airport.
It docked at a special apron that ordinary passengers could not enter.
The cabin door opened slowly.
Su Che followed behind General Zhang and walked down the ramp.
The scene in front of him stunned him.
On the apron, two groups of people stood in a dense crowd.
The group on the left was all soldiers in general's uniforms, each standing straight with a powerful aura.
The person in the lead had two shiny general's stars on his shoulders.
When General Zhang saw him, he immediately stepped forward, stood at attention, and saluted.
"Lieutenant General Peng!"
The group on the right was a group of "old men" who were dressed simply and were on the older side, but each of them exuded an air of scholarly refinement and wisdom that ordinary people did not possess.
The white-haired old man in the lead, without waiting for General Zhang to introduce him, pushed aside the people around him, rushed to Su Che in a few steps, and excitedly shook his hand.
Those hands were trembling slightly with excitement.
"Are you Comrade Su Che?"
"I am from the Chinese Academy of Sciences, President Liu Qianghua!"
Behind him, that group of top academicians and scientists who could make the entire industry tremble with just a stomp of their feet in the Dragon Kingdom's scientific and technological circles, all stared fixedly at Su Che with a gaze that was almost fanatical, like looking at a rare treasure.
